Ferro's Split Gatling Fix

Description
My first X4 Mod!

I love miniguns, nothing like holding the trigger down to shred an opponent.
But if anyone has ever played any Ubisoft game that featured a minigun not mounted on some type of aircraft, it always looks like either the barrels are bent all over the place, or the shooter can't hold the gun steady.

I call it "Ubisoft Minigun syndrome" some BS effort to balance out a weapon that is supposed to spit out 50 bullets per second by making it rarely hit where you actually aim it.

The Split small and medium Neutron Gatling had that Ubisoft affliction, no matter the fact that the barrels are almost double the length of Bolt Repeater. So it should be more accurate unless your ships weapon mounts are held up by wet noodles.

TL;DR: This Mod 'de-Ubisofts' the split S and M Neutron Gatling.

*Changes this mod does: Sets Neutron Gatling shoot angle to 0.07
*Can safely be activated and deactivated on existing saves.
*VRO uses don't need this mod.

(Belated) 'grats on making the front page when you dropped this, I think it was well deserved 'cos your logic for creating this mod is spot on!

Ubisofting ... sorry, but I am sooooooo stealing that :)

@OldPayphone: Thanks dude, I'm still learning about modding as I'm not that good yet. That and I'm not quite sure what else I'd like to mod in this game either.

I'm open for suggestions but one thing I'm considering is a mod that greatly reduces, if not outright removes, the amount of vertical and horizontal drift you get from taking tight turns at speed for all ships. this drift its most noticeable in the racer ships when after you stop boosting you try to take a tight turn.

These 2 mods you have released are amazing and should be in the base game. Looking forward to more of your mods!
